23-030 (AS) (13) Miscellaneous Consultant Services

The San Antonio Independent School District (SAISD) is conducting a continuous open solicitation Request for Proposal (RFP #23-030) for Miscellaneous Consultant Services across multiple professional domains. The procurement seeks qualified vendors to provide services including professional/staff development training, technology analysis, operations analysis, education consulting, administrative consulting, and translation/interpreting services. Proposals must be submitted electronically through the Bonfire Portal, with the contract term extending from Board of Trustees approval through June 30, 2026, as a multiple-award contract. Evaluation criteria will be conducted on a pass/fail basis, assessing proposal completeness, ability to meet district requirements, pricing appropriateness, and reference quality. Vendors must provide comprehensive documentation including insurance verification, conflict of interest forms, and compliance with state regulations. The district reserves the right to negotiate terms, potentially conduct interviews, and select proposals based on best overall value rather than lowest price.

The district has established a 20% Small, Women, and Minority Business Enterprise (SWMBE) participation goal, indicating a preference for diverse vendor participation. This is an as-needed contract with no guaranteed minimum work, and award is contingent on district funding. Vendors must complete a detailed pricing sheet documenting service type, professional qualifications, certifications, estimated compensation rates, and current service status with the district. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the continuous solicitation suggests flexibility in vendor selection and contract scope. The procurement encourages vendors to expand upon the Statement of Work to demonstrate their service capabilities, with proposals evaluated on their comprehensive approach to meeting SAISD's consulting needs. Interested vendors must carefully review all documentation and ensure compliance with the district's comprehensive requirements for participation in this open solicitation.
